The coexistence of the streaming instability and the vertical shear instability in protoplanetary disks – planetesimal formation thresholds explored in two-dimensional global models

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: Schu00e4fer Urs and Johansen Anders from the Centre for Star and Planet Formation, Globe Institute, University of Copenhagen, u00d8ster Voldgade, Copenhagen, Denmark have published the research work: The coexistence of the streaming instability and the vertical shear instability in protoplanetary disks - Planetesimal formation thresholds explored in two-dimensional global models, in the Journal: (JOURNAL)
• what: Employing two-dimensional global simulations of protoplanetary disks the authors show that the vertical shear instability and the streaming instability in concert can cause dust concentration that is sufficient for planetesimal formation for lower surface density ratios and smaller . . .
